Given:

The equation at hand is:

$y=5x$

In this context, x represents the total tickets sold for the school play, while y indicates the total revenue generated from ticket sales.

To find:

The appropriate table of values from the provided options.

Solution:

It's clear that both the number of tickets and the revenue collected cannot be negative, which means that options A and B are not viable.

We have:

$y=5x$

For $x=0$ ,

$y=5(0)$

$y=0$

For $x=10$ ,

$y=5(10)$

$y=50$

For $x=51$ ,

$y=5(51)$

$y=255$

For $x=400$ ,

$y=5(400)$

$y=2000$

In option C, the ordered pairs (0,0), (10,50), (51,255), (400,2000) are present in the table. Thus, option C is the correct choice.

For $x=65$

$y=5(65)$

$y=325$

As the ordered pair (65,350) does not fulfill the requirements of the equation, thus option D is incorrect.

Consequently, the right option is C.

) If the pattern shown continues, how many black keys appear on a portable keyboard with 49 white keys? Suggestion: use equivale

Zina [12379]

There are 5 black keys for each 7 white keys. Hence, the ratio stands at 5:7. To determine how many black keys correspond to 49 white keys, we calculate the scaling factor for the ratio: 49 divided by 7 equals 7. Thus, the original ratio is scaled by 7. Therefore, the total number of black keys equals 5 multiplied by this scaling factor, resulting in 35 black keys.

Melissa has three different positive integers. She adds their reciprocals together and gets a sum of $1$. What is the product of

Svet_ta [12734]

Given the three integers are $a,b,c$ , we arrive at

$\dfrac1a+\dfrac1b+\dfrac1c=1$

We can merge the fractions on the left side:

$\dfrac{bc}{abc}+\dfrac{ac}{abc}+\dfrac{ab}{abc}=\dfrac{bc+ac+ab}{abc}=1$

$\implies abc=bc+ac+ab$

A shipment of 20 similar laptop computers to a retail outlet contains 3 that are defective. If a school makes a random purchase

Svet_ta [12734]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The total count of laptops, N = 20

Defective laptops, n = 3

The school is purchasing 2 laptops

Case 1:

Both purchased laptops are non-defective

Probability of selecting 2 non-defective laptops

The count of non-defective laptops equals 20 - 3 = 17

Overall laptop count = 20

Probability, P = 17/20 = 0.85

Case 2:

One laptop is found defective

The probability of choosing 1 defective and 1 non-defective laptop

P' = 3/20 x 17/19 = 0.134

Case 3:

Both laptops are defective

Choosing 2 laptops from 3 = 3 C 2 = 3

Selecting 2 from 20 = 20 C 2 = 190

The probability of selecting two defective laptops equals 3 / 190 = 0.0158

P'' =
